My trip with PACKAGE TOUR MONGOLIA was spectacular!!! I had an amazing time and took a lot of beautiful pictures. The Gobi Desert is absolutely beautiful and the travel agency is very professional, organized, and good at what they do. Jigden, the owner, talked to me before the trip to ensure he understood what my priorities & objectives for the trip were and made me feel very taken care of. He customizes and ensures the guide & the driver are aware of who we are, what we want, and that we are treated with the utmost care. I highly recommend this travel agency and the driver, cars and guides are theirs (and not third-party). So you are always with someone they have trained. I look forward to hopefully going back to Mongolia to explore the northern part next time. The north is a completely different landscape (with forests, lakes, raindeers, etc) and I amazed with pictures the guide showed me he had taken with some tourists last season. If I return, will most definitely be with Package Tour Mongolia and Jigden's Team.We did the 4 day Mongolia tour with Jigden in December.

We did the 4 day Mongolia tour with Jigden in December. Throughout the entire planning process, Jigden was patient and accommodating, even offering us advice as we were travelling overland from China. Throughout the trip, Jigden upheld the same level of professionalism and warmth, going out of his way to pick us up from the bus terminal, and bringing us out for dinner and around the city. It is an understatement to say that we enjoyed ourselves thoroughly during the trip, and we truly are immensely grateful to Jigden for catering to our every needs, and personally bringing us out into the countrysides in his personal vehicle. The experience left me wanting more, and I am certain that one day I will return to seek greater adventures with Jigden and his team.The staff of this company is very helpful and the tour is well planned. We experienced the nomadic lifestyle and learned about history and culture of Mongolia.
